John Greenleaf Whittier
Yesterday the high was 92 degrees F. Today it’s 62.
Yesterday we worked in the yard wearing sweat bands. Today we worked in the yard wearing light jackets.
We’ve been using the attic fan for the nice, cool breeze to help us sleep better. Last night I almost froze my rear end off, getting up to turn off the attic fan, shut the window, and turn on the electric blanket for a bit when the temperatures touched 46 degrees.
Amber is in heaven today. I think she thought that having to pant much of the day was just the way it was. Today the cooler temperatures energized her to the point we stood and laughed as she ran round and round the house, then turned and ran full out the other direction several times. We also played ball for quite awhile this morning, and my husband is out with her right now.
We started to have the doors open this morning, and then closed up because we were too cool in here!
My husband went to the basement to get us some jackets to hang up.
It’s only going to be this way for a couple of short days, and then we’ll have Indian summer, with temperatures in the high 80s again, but what a lovely dose of fall we’re having!
